AUSTIN, Texas -- A Texas grand jury indicted Rep. Tom DeLay on a new charge of money laundering Monday, less than a week after another grand jury leveled a conspiracy charge that forced DeLay to temporarily step down as House majority leader.
Both indictments accuse DeLay and two political associates of conspiring to get around a state ban on corporate campaign contributions by funneling the money through a political action committee to the Republican National Committee in Washington.
If you stand just right, this could start to seem like a really good day to be a Democrat.
PS: How much do you want to bet that somewhere, right now, a right-wing nut is making a "joke" about the reporter's last name?
